The Official #11 Tennessee vs. #7 Alabama Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, ABC

[EastTNVol6240]

What a great performance by our Defense.

I think the combination of Neyland Noise and relentless pressure caused Milrose to have an off game.

Big shoutout to the secondary. They stepped it up today.

Also looks like Nico kind of rediscovered his groove. Wasn't his best game by far but he stepped up and got it done.

Great game by Bru and Sampson, and OL. They weren't without their mistakes but came through big especially in the second half.

Will be interesting to see grades but I felt like they played much better. I didn’t pay much attention to the personnel shifting on the line. Did we move anyone?

DB J McCoy played a hell of a game.

Sampson!

The Oline began to block a little.

You slurp fake name game guy.

you so desperate fer a puss wipe
Suck it loser !!!

Well the Tide receded. And the Vols won.

Vols still in the race for a play-off birth.

Any win over Bama is great considering the storied history of the serires.

The tide does not have Nicky anymore. The Big Orange is about to take over. It is now our turn!

I'm not sure we're blitzing anyone. Great defense, run the ball efficiently and get wins. Nico will come along, gotta learn his defense is good enough that he doesn't have to force things.

OT's played well, Campbell had one hold, but Heard played a clean game. Hopefully he and Nico have turned a corner. Take a week off and come out and blitz UK.

And 840 yards with 5 games remaining in the regular season. Heisman worthy numbers in the conference we play in.

 

[nomads-11]

With a bye week coming…

And I think it comes at a great time. Hope they're able to take full advantage of it.

 

[GoVols1961]

A lot of could have's, should have's, and would have's being brought up. Hell, you'd think we lost if you didn't know better.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

Nico running makes this team much much better. We needed that at Arky. As long as Nico is mobile it is a different ballgame.

This statement is 1000% true. That is what has been missing from this offense. Hooker was so successful in this offense because he made teams pay with his legs.

It’s like Novocain. Eventually it works….or it

Am I the only one that thinks Beck looks like Herman Munster ?

A fake handoff to Sampson with a QB run would have kept the ball away from Bama with 1:42 left.

Unless they fumbled like they did against Florida

 

[FlVols]

As a Vol fan living in Alabama, I sincerely thank the Vols for giving me a pleasant next 12 months of life. Go Big Orange!

As Vol fan living in Florida, and a lifelong tide hater, I’m gonna have a great next 12 months like I did two years ago!!!

 

[Dudleys87]

Not a single game of football will be watched in toothless town for the rest of the season.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Hey Meyer, still worried about our offense?

How can you not be? It's still a concern, at least in the first half

 

[Slov16]

When was the last time Bama lost to Tennessee and Vandy in the same season?

1984

 

[SugarVols]

No goalposts down or storming the field just cigars and business taken care of
